I'm planning on selling my car in the next month or so, and feel a bit in the dark as to what steps to take. I'd like to do it myself to save (make) the most money. So far, I plan on getting it detailed, getting it's 30,000 mile checkup and putting an ad on Craigslist — and... that's about it.

My questions: Are there better places to put car ads? What if I've got some weirdos looking at the car that want to go for a test drive? Am I like, "No...sorry.. you're weird. No test drive for you." Once I've sold the car, what steps do I need to take?

Basically, Marty wants to know how to sell a car himself.

We've covered the topic of buying a car online, which is definitely a good thread to check (since it only makes sense that knowing what a buyer is looking for should help you sell), but it certainly doesn't exhaust the issue of selling a car yourself. So, if you have experience selling your own car, give us your tips for making it a smooth, profitable process in the comments. — Adam Pash
